Who this list is for
This packing list is for adults heading to a recreational rugby training session. It’s tailored for personal gear, not team equipment, and assumes you’ll check with your club about allowed protective items.
How to use this list
Pack your bag the night before training. Lay out your training jersey, rugby shorts, boots, and long athletic socks so you don’t forget any part of your kit. Confirm if your club allows shoulder padding or soft headguards, and pack those only if permitted.
Common mistakes
Don’t overlook your mouthguard—it’s easy to forget and some clubs won’t let you train without it. Skip bringing extra balls or cones unless specifically asked. Don’t pack hard-shell headgear or non-approved padding unless your club allows it. Avoid glass bottles; stick to a reusable water bottle and electrolyte drink.
What is on this list
You’ll need your training jersey, rugby shorts, boots, and long athletic socks. Safety items include a mouthguard, optional soft headguard, and shoulder padding if club rules permit. Athletic tape is for minor support or quick fixes. Bring a water bottle and an electrolyte drink for hydration. A small towel is useful for sweat or mud. Pack a rain jacket in case the weather turns.
Before you go
Check your bag for all gear before leaving. Make sure your boots are clean and mouthguard is packed. Fill your water bottle and set aside your towel and rain jacket. After training, air out your kit and wash it promptly for the next session.
